We have been to Louisville for almost two months now. We are so lucky to have met so many friendly and hospitable colleagues and friends here who have helped us settle in this new environment readily. Every day is a new experience to us and we can’t wait to share it with you!

Teaching is a challenge since the classroom environment is very different from that in Hong Kong but we are getting more used to it now. Establishing a good rapport with students over the time helps with teaching too! We also made some friends here and have a lot of fun with them! Apart from teaching, we have also immersed in the local culture by taking part in various community services. It has been a wonderful experience!
